Hi,
I'd like to know if there is a webpage that is more of
a walk-through on how o create a mirror for wikipedia. I have had a
few people asked me how this can be done here at CLEF2011 and I was
not able to give them a satisfactory answer.

There's probably a page on
mediawiki.org explaining it.
Very quickly:
- Install a mediawiki
- Tweak the configuration
- Download the appropiate xml file from
dumps.wikimedia.org (usually the
-current one)
- Import with mwdumper (does that still work? you may need some patches)
- Import with mysqldump other sql files from
dumps.wikimedia.org for
faster startup (instead of reparsing all the pages)
- Add a line on the bottom explaining that it is a Wikipedia mirror,
where to find the last version, the license, etc.
- Profit
